Identifying Patient-relevant Adverse Events Following Prostate Radiotherapy
There have been calls from patients, payers, healthcare providers, and policy makers for an
evaluation of newer, high-cost radiation technologies compared to conventional forms of
radiation therapy. National attention has focused on the use of intensity modulated radiation
therapy (IMRT) into routine daily clinical practice for prostate cancer. The goal of the
present study is to determine whether the type of radiation treatment received by the
patients can result in a reduction in patient-relevant side effects following prostate
irradiation. The analysis will be performed by obtaining patient answered surveys looking at
side effects.
